Terry Gene Ray Obituary
It is always difficult saying goodbye to someone we love and cherish. Family and friends must say goodbye to their beloved Terry Gene Ray of Highlands, North Carolina, who passed away at the age of 90, on December 29, 2025. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
As we bid adieu to Terry's earthly form, let us not dwell on the void left in his wake, but rather celebrate the legacy of love and inspiration Terry has bequeathed us. For though he may have departed from our sight, his spirit remains a timeless beacon, guiding loved ones through the labyrinth of life's journey.
He was predeceased by: his parents, Burris Eulon Ray and Malinda Jane Ray (Savage). He is survived by: his sister Sue Smith (Junior) of Alexandria, IN; his wife Faye Ray of Highlands, NC; his children, Charles Anthony (Tony), Ray (Rochelle) of Tempe, AZ and Leigh Ray Hartman (Clay) of Highlands, NC; and his grandson Luke Hartman of Highlands, NC..
Given Terry's love for animals and his belief that no one should face food insecurity, the family requests that, in lieu of flowers, memorial contributions be made to the International Friendship Center and Highlands Food Pantry, or to the Highlands Cashiers Humane Society.
